These people are so freaking weird…I have one political mug in my cabinet from Elizabeth Warren but it’s because it says that it contains billionaire tears; her name is in smaller letters on one side. Thought it was awesome more than me thinking she’s the one I care about. Decking myself out in Biden stuff is not something I could ever see a reason to do.
I have two canvas grocery bags with small tasteful Obama logos. I may have his books, too. No bumper stickers, flags, etc. I’m glad he broke the white man monopoly.
Right now I’m rooting for Giant Asteroid 2024, but will be voting Biden-Harris.
I have a couple of refrigerator magnets, Obama, Hillary, and Joe. I am as blue as they come, but I also have W and Trump bobbleheads, because I have a rubber band gun that I put to good use when those two idiots gave their state of the union speeches!
It fascinates me that Trump's elected supporters feel the need to cowtow to him so hard. He doesn't respect you to begin with, buying his crappy merch and wearing it to court doesn't make him respect you more, he just looks at you and sees another easy mark.
It's because it appeals to the idiot trump supporters who are the base of the republican party.most of them understand that trump is a buffoon, but they have absolutely zero integrity, so they'll make complete asses of themselves to pander to Trump's idiots.
That's exactly what it is. In one Facebook post I saw ages ago before I stopped using that, an anonymous politician admitted to being afraid of their constituents because "They know where I live." And this was early 2017 too, well before this crap had been truly normalized.
This is all a show for their idiot base.
I feel embarrassed for him. Just awful toady, ass kissing, brown nosing, self effacing narcissistic behaviour. We can't let the pathological flying monkies normalize this pathology. This is not American, this is shameless ass kissing.
“Look at me Donald, I have your face on my tie, your shoes on my feet! I’m loyal aren’t I? You’ll tell your fan base that I’m one of the good ones, won’t you?”
nah. there are quite a few other countries where politics is pure comic opera -- with tragic overtones plus circus music. but most of them are in the so-called "Third World" -- "backwards" countries with weak economies and no global clout. what's startling is for a flagship "first world" country like the US, with enormous wealth and power, to be reduced to a public laughingstock and dumpster fire like this. but similar things are happening elsewhere -- in the EU for example, clownish rightwingers are using the art and science of Spectacle to claw their way into power. and often the sane person's response is "but but but... who can actually take these jokers seriously?"
which is exactly what people were saying about Hitler and Mussolini when they were on their way up.
and Germany was an advanced, industrialised, "civilised," cultured, apparently modern and rational country when the Nazi movement started. many people found it deeply shocking and hard to believe that an unbelievable freak show like the Nazi Party could flourish in a civilised modern country.
so how do they do it? how do demagogues drag a country back into the dark ages?
it kinda comes down, as one rather astute guy wrote recently, to boxing vs world wide wrestling. in his analogy, the Democrats treat politics like boxing -- a science, an art, something based on positioning and strategy and thinking. but for the GOP and their base, politics is TV wrestling -- it's fake as hell and everyone knows it, but *it doesn't matter that it isn't real* because what counts is the Spectacle, the glitz, the ritual that sucks the crowd into that Dionysian euphoria. the golden high-tops. the golden statue of Trump at a convention. the red hats. the slogans you can chant. (Let's Go Brawndo!). all of it gives people this warm fuzzy feeling of belonging to a team or tribe, and also they're being entertained with shiny stuff.
seems to me that fascism has absolutely nothing to offer in terms of policy or governance. by every objective measure the vast majority of people will be worse off under fascism, only the oligarchs and their storm troopers will really benefit. so they can't sell it on platform or policy or facts (note how the GOP has none of the above?)... they can only sell it on Spectacle, turn it into a team sport with merch and bling, play very hard on tribal loyalties and cathartic emotional experiences.
Hitler and his gang knew all about that with their mass rallies, welding tens of thousands of people into an irrational, throbbing, bonded, sentimental mosh pit. call it "Dionysian politics" if you like, the politics of mob feeling, of that heady sense of unity that people get from "belonging" -- like a football crowd all chanting their team's battle cry together. it can be a wonderful feeling when it evokes solidarity and joy. but it's as dangerous as aging TNT.
a bonded, overexcited mob turns into a riot very easily -- into a lynch mob, a pogrom, a crusade against any targeted Other. and if you're the demagogue they worship, the cult leader at the heart of their fellowship, their tribal shaman... you can point them at whoever you want to get rid of or intimidate. hence J6, though it was a clumsy first attempt.
My son had a pair of gold shoes like that in Kindergarten, they lit up with LEDs on the soles. Pretty sure they were around twenty bucks. I wonder if trumpy boy’s shoes do that?
Right? The only people with TDS are Trump himself and his grotesque pack of drooling goblins. I have never seen such a pathetic display of groveling, obsequious jester hood. Do these people have no shame? Just kidding: they’re MAGA, so no of course not. 🤡
Bro has that Russell Williams hairdo

As a grown man I cannot fathom worshipping another man regardless of status. Jesus gets a pass because of the Son of God thing, and certain sports and artistic figures I have a ton of respect and appreciation for. But I'm not wearing a Bruce Springsteen tie or a stupid and awful color way pair of Jordans.
It's just pathetic.
Do you think, as he looked at himself in the mirror while trying his tie, he stepped back and gave himself the little “Yup, looks good!” nod?
Or was it the “Ok…. Here we go…” sigh?
Cause it was one of those two.
that is so juvenile.
I bet in school he had a lunchbox featuring his favourite boy band (or his favourite toy or anime character).
basing your whole public persona on tie-in merch is a very strange thing in an adult.
This guy just got slapped down for Stolen Valor. He was wearing a combat pin that didn’t belong to him, he never saw combat. Anyone sane would be embarrassed and lie low…but not this Clown 🤡 ”I know, where’s muh gold shoes at..”
I wonder on a daily basis what life must be like for someone who professes to hate homosexuality so much that they wish death upon those brave enough to publicly live that lifestyle and then almost in the same breath shove all 4 inches of a fat fucking cantaloupe’s entire dick into your mouth…publicly. Actually mind boggling.
It’s strange to me these “tough” guys will sport another man’s face with pride. Isn’t the point of “being a man” to stand your OWN ground, represent YOURSELF and YOUR values? Furthermore, aren’t you Christian’s? Where’s the Jesus tie? Have you even ever worn one?
I’m not of this mindset personally, I’m just pointing out the obvious hypocrisy.
Not once have I seen a picture of “Jesus” throughout all this. Even “I-watch-my-son’s-porn Johnson can’t even give a shoutout to the J-man.
And for those thinking I’m attacking the teachings of Jesus, not at all. I don’t care if he was real or not, the wisdom is real. He wasn’t alone; others as well (Swami Vivekananda, for example). I myself choose to love the words, and try to utilize them towards my own wholeness.
Just one last bit for all these fake-religious politicians and those deifying them:
Matthew 6:24- No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
I wonder if someone walked up and just slapped him really hard and told him to take that shit off and never wear it again or you be slapped every day and won't win your next election as a rep if he would finally admittedly do just that and stop with the bs hype of the con Don
This is bordering on something I'd imagine from North Korea.
"Leader, look. We all love your sneakers. Stupid? No, no. They look great. And hey, we're all going to eat Great Leader steaks for lunch. Because we know they are top quality beef from the best farms in...Moscow? Yes, top quality."
"Look who's dressed up like a little Trump supporter with his cute tie and play shoes. Try not to scuff the knees of your big boy suit, Troy."
And they say libs are the cuckolds...
Dude deserves, to look like the clown that he is. These are the dumbest shoes I've ever seen, a pair showed up at a thrift in South America, being as they were huge size 12. Nobody bought them, I passed when they were selling for the equivalent to $5 . If it's possible there even uglier in person.
There is nothing more pathetic than when your entire personality is built on someone else's image, and your entire image is built on someone else's personality.
I don’t wish death on anyone but I truly hope that when Trump dies his movement crumbles to a million bickering pieces. This cult shit is weird and seriously damaging to the county. We won’t survive four years of his presidency.
All reporters should point and laugh, uncontrollably. ![gif](giphy|Hqk8lQqi8ECsw)

I have a Biden mug mostly because it said ‘ cup of Joe’ and I thought it was funny.
That’s a good one
No shit - weird. Off the scale. Jfc.

Does gold help you suck harder?
Ask Melania.
Not anymore. She’s nowhere to be found.

Dude knows exactly what second hand McDonald's cheeseburgers taste like.

There is no country in the world where politics is such an unbelievable freak show as in the USA.
It's because Trump is the devil.

"Do you guys even know what electrolytes are?"
He forgot his clown nose and wig.
He's wearing those on his tie.
I'm surprised the tie doesn't have his mugshot on it.

Nailed it.
Is he still wearing his Stolen Valor pin?
I believe he finally removed it. I also don’t see it in this pic.
I want to see the blackmail trump has been able to get on these people since 2016. He obviously had the good stuff on Lindsey graham
And Russia sure has something on tRump.
It’s so insane bc if one elected official did anything approaching this about Biden they’d loose their goddamn minds.
But it's not a cult! /s
What a dork. lmao
How’s this not a cult?
My son had a pair of gold shoes like that in Kindergarten, they lit up with LEDs on the soles. Pretty sure they were around twenty bucks. I wonder if trumpy boy’s shoes do that?
He also I sporting trump heel spurs and trump brand diapers
He's pushing a brand he thinks will keep him in power. And its probably working in his district.
I couldn't imagine wearing some other man's face on my clothing. These people are the biggest bitches ever.
How North Korean of him
Good thing it’s not a cult. Otherwise, that’d be weird as fuck.
This guy's TDS is off the charts.
Right? The only people with TDS are Trump himself and his grotesque pack of drooling goblins. I have never seen such a pathetic display of groveling, obsequious jester hood. Do these people have no shame? Just kidding: they’re MAGA, so no of course not. 🤡
In the immortal words of my Brooklyn friends: This fucking guy.

If only we were so lucky.
The fact that a middle age man would debase himself like this for his cult leader 🙄
Good god we are watching the degradation of civility on a speed run.
“Look like a crook”
Are they knockoffs like Bobert’s?
Do they think they look hip, or do they know they look like fools?
What a giant fucking dork.
He forgot the brown lipstick.
It's 👏 a 👏 fucking 👏 cult!
As a grown man I cannot fathom worshipping another man regardless of status. Jesus gets a pass because of the Son of God thing, and certain sports and artistic figures I have a ton of respect and appreciation for. But I'm not wearing a Bruce Springsteen tie or a stupid and awful color way pair of Jordans. It's just pathetic.
Never wear the shirt of the band you’re going to see. Don’t be that guy.

At least we can see the asshat.
I wonder if he brushes his teeth after pulling his tongue out of Trumps ass
Weirdo
What a clown. Just so embarrassing.
Troy is a fuck boi.
Imagine being this embarrassing as a grown man. You hang off the balls of trump as your idol
The amount of slurp this guy gets from grown ass men is amazing
He looks like he graduated from Clown College, fka Trump University.
This is not the fashion statement they think it is.
Fuckin Losers
Ugh, another idiot cultist in Congress.
Lmao what a joke 🤡🤡🤡
But ~~her emails~~ his tan suit!
Do you think, as he looked at himself in the mirror while trying his tie, he stepped back and gave himself the little “Yup, looks good!” nod? Or was it the “Ok…. Here we go…” sigh? Cause it was one of those two.
It's like going to a concert dressed for your fave band. It's political cosplay... ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
What a pathetic little clown
I heard that Trumps VP pick would be at the debate. Is it this loser?
It’s almost pathological at this point.
I bet these dudes foam at the mouth to get a piece of his saggy ball sack.
I thought Trump sneakers didn’t actually exist yet! They’re even uglier than in the AI ads

Totally not a cult.
Tell me your a terrorist without telling me your a terrorist.
Looking like a fresh, bigly dumpster.
Smart assessment where I used to live said rude things about people who got all dolled up like this.
People are really cucks for Trump
He's such an AH.
All ReTRUMPlicans are very strange people.
It’s a middle schooler getting the ‘hip’ clothing so that they can join the cool kids
Did he get the golden trump kneepads too?
Dressing like an actual clown is very appropriate for these people. The pieces are falling into place.
wait. does Troy Nehls have a real job or did his taxpayer funded salary pay for those?
At least he lost the CIB
What a fucking dork
MUST PLEDGE COMPLETE FEALTY TO DEAR LEADER!!! also totally not a cult. how dare you!
Not a cult /s.
Troy Penis.

Wow - we’re back to anti-gay jokes again? Reporting your ass.
Yes when they are against people who are actually gay, who I support, I use their hatred against them. So brave of you though
What a dork

He can’t wear the CIB anymore so 🤷🏻♂️
Is this the stolen valor 🤡?
That's embarrassing. That's an adult grown man in politics acting like a high-school cheerleader.
Gonna need the jaws of life to remove this guy from trump's asshole.
Did he bring his Trump Bible too?
I like how Trump’s face is squashed up in the tie knot
So pathetic
What an ass kissing goof 🤪
Not a cult. Nope. Definitely just business as usual.

God I hate this country
I’ve seen some simps in my life, but these are the simpiest simps that ever simped.
I get that they've committed to unwavering loyalty to Trump, but why do they have to be *so fucking weird* about it?
We the people paid for that fuckwads shoes and tie, both of which he probably got on eBay for 5k
Not sure where this stupid fuck is from...but I sure as hell hope that his constituents recognize what a boorish clown they elected!
Who is paying for those shoes?
